Euclidean geometry

This highly illustrated book presents the regular and semiregular polyhedra in a new and exciting manner. Choosing an alternative more inclusive way to define polygons, the compound polygons can be usefully added to a polygonal vocabulary that then allows compounds tilings and polyhedra to be assembled. These in turn become the building blocks for compound closepacks and hypersolids leading to further forms in higher dimensions.
